[PhD] Geometric-Semantic Adaptation of Multimodal LLMs for High-level Landmark Detection in Complex Environments

General information Description Context Landmark detection, description and matching is the cornerstone of autonomous visual localization systems deployed in unknown environments. While most widely-adopted and accurate solutions exploit low-level landmarks (i.e., points or lines), dealing with large-scale and visually ambiguous environments remains highly challenging due to the inherent multiplicity, ambiguity…

[PhD] BAYESIAN RECEIVER DESIGN AND BEAMFORMING FOR MULTIUSER MIMO THZ COMMUNICATIONS USING PROBABILISTIC GRAPHICAL MODELS AND GRAPH NEURAL NETWORKS

Abstract: Wireless communications in sub-THz and THz bands are considered a key enabler for future 6G networks due to the abundance of unused spectrum and the potential for ultra-massive MIMO (UM-MIMO) systems that achieve terabit-per-second data rates and precise localization. However, challenges such as severe path loss, blockage, hardware impairments,…
